Table legs
Our Lagoon 420 cockpit and salon tables use non-adjustable metal tubes as table legs. These are tapered at each of the ends. I need a new pair at table height, and I have not been able to find these when searching the internet. Nor can I find them on the Beneteau website. Anyone have any ideas where to source these. The only things i have found that are similar have too small of a diameter. Needs to be 2.25 to 2.5 inches. Thanks

Re: Lagoon 410 Repower (Engine removal)
We had a 1999 L410, and had the SB engine removed for rebuild. That was a Yanmar 3GM30.
We had no problem lifting it out once the deck panel (and some support structure for the liners) was removed.? But maybe the S2 has a different bed setup and a different support structure. Please find attached a shot of the bed with engine removed. If yours looks the same it should work. |

Lagoon 410 Repower (Engine removal)
Hi Lagoon owners, Does anyone have experience removing an engine on a L410? I specifically am interested in if the engine will clear the middle wooden longitudinal bed support (on the SB side it is towards the middle of the boat). My mechanic thinks it needs to be removed, but that looks like a royal pain and it looks to me like the engine will lift up as is. I have removed the deck lid above the engine, that was a bit of a pain too, but doable. Any other wise words on this endeavor? Best Regards Jess. 2006 Lagoon 410 S2 "Imagine" Hull #251 in Lewes, Delaware. ? |

Re: Used Yanmar 3JH3E for sale
Hi goodind200,
I noticed you mentioned that the engine was on your L410. I am going to remove one of my L410 engines and was wondering if you have any advice on the matter. I have removed the "lid" in the deck above the engine. My mechanic wants me to remove the wood bed support that runs from fore to aft next to the engine, not the ones on the side, but the one about 1/3 of the way in towards the engine. It looks like to me that then engine will lift out without removing that wood piece.? Can you confirm that? Do you still have the boat? How do you like it? Best regards Jess PS: I am on Jess@... if you want to email direct. |

Re: [LagoonOwners] Lash bobbins or reefing blocks
see the thread this week and last about replacing blocks on reef points.? Lots of good discussion about plus/minus of blocks and rings. ? Stuart S/V Rum Away 2017 450S #33 On Thu, Feb 15, 2018 at 9:58 AM, 5j2ving3vaa72y6o3rq7ugbh4zfkdlncrem3kvuh@... [lagooncatowners] <lagooncatowners@...> wrote:

Re: [LagoonOwners] One rudder
Interesting, Jeff. This is exactly what one might expect. and it is nice to have the confirmation. With the port rudder functioning was it easier to turn to port than starboard? Bill On Thu, Feb 15, 2018 at 4:16 AM, aerocad2@... [lagooncatowners] <lagooncatowners@...> wrote:

Lash bobbins or reefing blocks
Hi Group,
I am replacing sails on a L440 - 2006. The sail maker is suggesting using lash bobbins (sometimes referred to as low friction rings) for all three reefs in lieu of former set up of blocks for 1st and 2nd and sloop for 3rd to reduce chafe and achieve a more consistant sail shape. Has anyone had experience with using these on a cat? Thanks all. Ian - HIJINX |

Re: Bahamas entry fees
All I ask for is better local info and to make it easier for you me and everyone else to enjoy sailing.
I am passionate? - maybe it's the wind gusts in this anchorage but promise to chill when the Bahamian authorities improve their chart accuracy - which according to the IHO are at less than 5% - so you me and everyone else have a 95% chance of running aground in their waters using their info. BUT here are some good news though - proof that some countries are "getting it" "NEW NEWS COME TO PANAMA !!
Good afternoon Sailors,
It is a pleasure to announce that finally, with the support of our
Panama Maritime Chamber and associates, of which I am a proud member.
The Mariners visa process for sailors has been suspended.
(the mariners visa has been eliminated along with its fees of $105
per person)
Panama President has signed the amendment and now is published and in effect as of today.
Finally, the sailing community is consider as what they are, a friendly visitor.
Please relay to your good fellow friends.
Best regards

Re: [LagoonOwners] Re: Spring in Lagoon 380(#411) Guest Head Door Handle Broke

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIf this is a project you want to be once-and-done with, try looking for aircraft grade springs instead of your standard hardware junk ;-)Related: we had an employee crash his plane - while taxiing - because someone had replaced a rudder return spring with a hardware store variety. Spring failed, pedal would not lift, and he just kept turning right into a closed hanger. Propellor chewed thru doors and he stopped moving when the wings hit the doors¡ which was REALLY fortunate as the hangar held a collection of restored Corvettes so that¡¯s when I learned that true ¡°aircraft grade¡± truly means a MUCH higher quality. -Rob

Re: [LagoonOwners] Re: Spring in Lagoon 380(#411) Guest Head Door Handle Broke
I used a pair of slip joint pliers, see attachment. The case is machine crimped to stay together. a little finagling and the pliers gave me the leverage to pop the case open. After replacing the spring, squeezing the box back to together and squeezing the old crimps worked well. Yes I got a free sample spring for a perfect replacement. 50 springs for less than $10.

Re: Spring in Lagoon 380(#411) Guest Head Door Handle Broke
One of my springs died last year and I was able to figure out that the latches are made by SouthCo and tracked down the latch mechanism. I purchased from a crazy website no one has ever heard of but it came and fit perfectly...only $85 for the latch vs. the $200+ for the entire assembly. Still way too much for a spring, but I couldn't figure out how to open the latch assembly to get the spring out to fix it. I imagine if you could, you could get a replacement spring at any old-timey hardware store. Maybe a?good locksmith shop could just replace the springs...

Re: [LagoonOwners] One rudder
I have done this on a Lagoon 55.? When I rebuilt both rudders I installed one at a time in the water.? Not much fun but doable.? I wanted to test how the boat would maneuver with just one installed.? I had the Port installed and the boat would have no problem staying straight while making a passage but trying to turn Starboard was not easy at around 4-5 knots of speed.??Rudder only and not shifting with both engines engaged in forward.? There would be? no reason not to drop a rudder if it was jammed or unusable so you could keep making passage.??

Re: Spring in Lagoon 380(#411) Guest Head Door Handle Broke
Brett, I have had about half fail on my 2006 - 440. As a temporary fix you can disassemble lock and take the old spring, they normally break right at the end, using a pair of long nose pliers, pull the broken end out and form another hook to the end of the spring that has broken. Reinstate. Fiddly but can work.? Ian HIJINX 440? |

I've replaced the spring. The only replacement for a broken spring is another exactly the same size spring. Joe Sea Of Love L440 BVI
